SOUTH
JORDAN, Utah, June 18,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ISP Reports, a leading
authority in internet service provider data transparency, is
excited to unveil its latest report: "Top 10 Metropolitan Cities
with the Fastest Internet Speeds." This comprehensive ranking
highlights the largest cities in the
United States that are setting the benchmark for high-speed
internet connectivity, leveraging the most recent FCC and Census
data to provide a precise and accurate analysis.
As a data company, ISP Reports found the current cities with the
fastest internet rankings lacking, so set out to create their own.
Rather than using the fastest speeds reported by an ISP in each
city or user speed test data, ISP Reports has created the Weighted
Max Download Speed metric by averaging speeds at the block level
for every city.
With the average city in this ranking containing 47,800 blocks
and the average block containing 58 residents, this is a much more
accurate and representative way to compare internet speeds and
infrastructure. For detailed information about our methodology,

Further Research Needed at the Local Level
While this may be the most sophisticated and accurate ranking of
US cities with the fastest internet speeds to date, gaining
meaningful insights requires more than just numbers. As a data
company, ISP Reports excels at national-level comparisons but lacks
the local expertise to fully interpret the data.
Although a higher ISP Report Card grade naturally correlates
with higher rankings, understanding the reasons behind these
results necessitates local insights. Local experts, familiar with
their cities, are crucial for answering key questions: Are specific
neighborhoods benefiting from targeted infrastructure investments?
How do local policies impact internet accessibility and speed? What
roles do economic and demographic factors play in these
rankings?
Local experts can provide invaluable context by investigating
these questions. By combining ISP Reports' comprehensive data with
on-the-ground reporting, they can uncover the stories behind the
numbers.
